Kunena 6.3.0 released
The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 6.3.0 [K 6.3.0] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 4.4.x/5.0.x/5.1.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 6.3
This category may also contain a few topics relating to K 1.6 that may have been moved here possibly by mistake.
The topics in this category are for historical interest only. Owing to the structural differences between K 1.6 and K 1.7, these ideas in these topics will not work with later versions and, for that reason, the topics are locked.
Idea K 1.5.3 - "Speech bubbles" for default_ex template
I wrote a tutorial on how to achieve this result in K 1.0.10 (see K 1.0.10: "Speech bubbles" for default_ex template ). You can also see a working demonstration of the concept at www.enduring.com.au/40P_demo .
With Kunena 1.5.3 there have been further changes to the default_ex template that affect the recommendations I made in my other posting. Although the techniques are still basically the same, I'm providing updated information here.
To create "speech bubbles" (for template default_ex):
Step 1: Edit the file ../components/com_kunena/default_ex/message.php at line 100 from
(a) Make these two changes as shown by the text in red):
(b) Replace the following lines in the same file:td.fb-msgview-left {
background:#f1f1f1;
vertical-align: top;
width:170px;
min-width:170px;
border-bottom: 0px solid #BFC3C6;
border-right:1px solid #BFC3C6;
}
td.fb-msgview-right {
border-right:1px solid #BFC3C6;
padding:5px 10px 5px 10px;
vertical-align: top;
border-left:1px solid #BFC3C6;
background-color: f1f1f1;
}
Alternatively, copy the attached file and replace the contents of your kunena.forum.css with it:

As always, these are only my suggestions; there is no support for them. The CSS features are also not supported in Internet Explorer V6 but they should work with all other versions of IE and other browsers.

Hard to tell by the pictures but does not look as if the bubbles have rounded corners.. even a 5px radius would be nice. Give it a shot if you can I would love to see this!
Thanks,

* change the background color of signature/buttons to gray
* remove vertical line between message and profile
* remove right margin in the message td to get bubble closer to the profile
Thanks to LDA, sozzled, Spock and others to make this happen.
